Team Online’s Jeff “JeffGross” Gross streamed his big Sunday session on Twitch on May 17 and his legion of followers received a real treat. Gross managed to navigate his way to the final table of the Big Game Phase Final Final Table where the least he could take home was $25,656. With $255,280 up top, Gross and his viewers had a major sweat on their hands.
“BreakingTheLAW” was the eight-handed final table’s first casualty. Their eighth-place finish saw them turn their $5,200 investment into $25,656.
“Hurricanes24” was blown away in seventh-place for $35,277, crashing out at the hands of “Fedor_Holz” when his pocket kings lost to a flopped set of three.
Sixth-place and $50,029 went to “OmarsComing” when his jack-ten couldn’t get there against the dominating queen-ten in the hand of “Tayto”.
Tayto then dusted off their stack in fifth-place and got their hands on $66,706 before “MUNJOSHuHa” crashed out in fourth-place for a $94,286 addition to their partypoker bankroll.
